People who just knew they were pregnant please share!

Hi,I'm not preg and am currently ttc but I have a question which I thought you experienced ladies might be able to help with.

You know when people say they just knew they were pregnant before getting the BFP, do you think that's really the case? I mean do you think they felt like that every month until they got their BFP Or just that one month in particular?

I'm just asking as I was feeling quite confident this month but tested today and BFN (think I'm about 10/11dpo so know it's still early) so now not so much

If anyone felt like this before their BFP I'd love to know if they only really felt that for the month they got preg.

I felt a bit that way, nothing I could really put my finger on, I just a felt a bit different and thought I was. then I tested several times and bfn's and convinced myself I was being an idiot and it was just wishful thinking coz I wanted it so much as was trying again after MC. but then few days later I started to get v faint bfp's and they got stronger.

I don't knwo why I felt different, I just did. but whether it was just my mind and a fluke it happened at the same time who knows. really hope this is your month!

HiI'm only 5 weeks pregnant and before that ttc for about 6 months. Every month i would think i had symptoms but then monthly came. This month I just knew. Extra tired, dizzy and headaches. It was weird feeling. Good luck and hopefully you will get BFP! xxxx

My beanie wasn't planned as such, we weren't planning on actively trying until Jan but I just knew I was already pregnant.I had only just come off the pill and been without AF, for some reason I bought some tests one random day and lo and behold BFP! Because I hadn't had an AF in 3 months I had no idea how far along I was, turns out I was 5+4 on the day I tested, so around about when bfp would have showed up. I remember thinking when I was waiting for the 3 mins to be up, I know what the result is anyway!Good luck on getting your bfp!

With this bean I had just had a mc a couple of weeks before but I just had this feeling I was pregnant again. I was tearful and feeling sick. I kept saying to my husband that I knew I was pregnant again but he thought I was just reading too much into things and wanted to see signs of pregnancy. I did a couple of HPT then but they were BFNs and I just put it out of my head. But about 9 weeks after the mc AF still hadn't come so I made an appointment to speak to the GP because I was getting frustrated and wanted to start TTC asap. I just decided to do a HPT the morning of the docs appointment and it came up BFP really strongly. I got sent for a scan and I was 7 weeks pregnant and I was right all along! I miraculously got pregnant 10 days after finished mc bleeding!

when you are TTC you symptom spot like mad and read all sorts of things into how your body behaves. What you will find when you get your BFP is that you may not get any symptoms at all, and certainly not the ones you may expect!!

Its mainly an intuition thing I think. Or you may get 1 symptom so strong its unmistakable. What I found is that I had 1 unexpected symptom (pain!! like cramps but really bad!) and tested just in case and found I was PG. It was nothing like the big lists of things you see on the ttc sites.

I also just 'knew' though. Very wierd and I realise quite unhelpful to someone who maybe hasn't experienced it yet, but there is no other way to describe it. What I would say is stop symptom spotting, if that is what you have a tendency to do and actually try and forget about it. If you are up the duff, you'll know

I had a feeling I was. Felt a bit crappy, got a mad urge to decorate the spare room and cried at the Archers! When I got up the following morning it seemed totally the right thing to do a test. I wasn't a bit surprised when it was positive (even thought I tested early).

The thing is since I came off pill In Jan I still haven't had AF (now 11 weeks!!) so really hard to judge when to test. I think I may have ov'd (finally!) about 10 days ago and just really feel pregnant but I'm sure my mind is playing tricks on me!!

I only had 1 period before getting PG and I am sure I OV'd on a certain date - me & DH then decided to put off TTC until after Xmas, and we didn't do it around the time the OV stick said a faint POS. So we actually tried NOT to get preggo! LOL! (No rythym method for us I think in the future) it really will come when you least expect it

I actually OV'd when the sicks said negative and we must have struck lucky I guess, but don't worry about lack of AF, the only time that would be an issue is the first thing any midwife asks you is the date of your last period. If you are already preggo they will have to scan to date it, so even thats OK in the end. You could be up the duff already my dear!! Sounds like you already know anyway.

My main thing has been these weird stomach twinges below my belly button which I've had for the past 3/4 days and a complete disinterest in food and just this weird feeling that I am. But I thought even though I tested early I was going to see a BFP today! Like I said I will test again in a few days but now think I was imagining it - I probably still haven't even ov'd!

I was very simlar to ally. We weren't planning on ttc until nov/dec time and had only had one af since coming off the pill, so wasn't really sure when af was due but going by the previous months 30day cycle I ended up testing fmu the day af was due. The friday at work was feeling rotten and one of the girls said she thought I was pg, told her no was craving choc and af was due lol! That evening still didn't feel right so bought a test on the way home I af wasn't there by morning (think at this point I just knew) lo and behold got my bfp that morning!

HiI just knew when I was pregnant! I had suffered a chem pg a few weeks before and when I found out that time something inside me just told me that it was over before it had begun really! So the next month when I had this over whelming feeling that I was pregnant I knew before I even tested. And when I did get my BFP something told me that everything was going to be ok.I am now 25 weeks pregnant and going strong. I believe your body and mind is a very powerful thing and you should trust your body when it is telling you something.Good luck with the TTC and your BFPXX

i just knew i was pg...came off pill in jan, had af feb and ttc after that.well i say tried.. we did it a few times in the week before ov and once or twice just before ov then got cold feet and decided to wait til june to ttc after my 30th...anyway at the time of conception i was v v v v constipated and felt bloated despite being on a liquid diet (cambridge diet) and not eating anything to make feel like that so i had an inkling but thought nothing of it because we had stopped ttc before ov...4 days before af was due (fri) i had some niggly cramps and i never get anything before af is due. she just turns up like clockwork no spotting cramps nothing. so that was the implantation. i did some fr early tests and got a neg, and also the on the sat and sun still negs. got some spotting red then brown on the weekend... again i never get anything before af so thought it odd!but as i was still getting negs on fr tests i dismissed it. on the monday i was utterly convinced i was not quite right and in the evening we did a cbd test and finally got a bfp on the eve before af was due.was i shocked??? no not at all... cos i had felt odd for 2 weeks prior to it.do a cbd test and see what that says, i dont rate fr at all xxx

Last time (with my ds) I thought I might be preg but didn;t believe it until I did a test. This time around I just KNEW I was preg from about a week before period was due - I had no symptoms or ANYTHING to make me think that but I just KNEW. I didn't even want to buy a preg test I was just gonna make my booking in appt with the midwife for when I knew I would be 8 weeks but hubbie INSISTED that I had to do a test and it was stupid to go to the midwife without doing one but I KNEW!!!

OH and i weren't trying but i was in a meeting at work and felt more tired than i ever had before, to the point where i had to fidgit to stay awake. i knew right there that i was pregnant. the next day i had slight nipping sensation in lower abdomen and i did a test and it came up negative but i felt pregnant. i took another about 4 days later and got my BFP. OH didn't believe it and made me take another test my mum was the same when she had me apparently.

I had a mc in Dec 07 (2wks before my wedding) When on honeymoon we were obviously doing what honeymooners do and I held my tummy one night while sitting on balcony drinking a cocktail and said to my tummy. "I know you're in there trying to decide whether to stick around or not, please do." I sang to my tummy every night and tested 4 days after honeymoon.

I just knew too. The first time I thought I was, because I had symptoms which I'd never had before. I wasn't totally sure then because it wasn't really symptoms I was expecting. But I got my BFP on my due date. This time, I knew really soon after we had conceived because I got exactly the same symptoms as before. I got my BFP earlier because I tested earlier but I was one of the few who do get an early postive. Some women don't until the due date even if they are. Fingers crossed for you xx

I went to Ireland for xmas with the inlaws. tested before I went - BFN even though AF was due. I just had a really strong feeling over xmas that I was pregnant, really can't explain why. Got my BFP the day before new years eve x

btw - my early 'symptoms' before BFP were period type pains (which I never get apart from on the day AF arrives), very very sore boobs from about a week before AF due (they are still sore now!) and also I was constantly sneezing and had an itchy nose for about a week or so. I felt like I was about to come down with a cold but it never did, if that makes sense!Becks x18 weeks today
